Well done!
My daughter is 4, and every time I head out for a hunt she asks too go. It gets real hard telling her "not this time sis". I sure hope when she gets a little older that she will still want to go. Great memories!
Congrats on a great buck!

Congrats to your daughter and to you!  Looks like you're a lucky Dad and she's a lucky daughter!  Awesome story....especially on the never give up attitude, and the smiles are priceless!

Thanks guys.  It was a great few days of hunting.  She was an absolute trooper and "never gave up".  I am a proud dad for sure.  Just a couple more weeks until all three girls, wife and both daughters get to try to fill their second doe tags in Blue Creek.  Hope to be posting another thread on that hunt and maybe a coverall thread showing all their harvests this year.

Thanks for all the positive comments, we both really have enjoyed them.

Clearly a higher power meant her to have that buck!  Posts like this keep me coming back to H-W.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Ain't that the truth?  I kept thinking "I can't believe we are getting another shot at this buck."

Truly meant to be.

Wow! Beautiful buck. Packing too, you're teaching her right. I love the joy in her face as you can't have it any better than that.
